I am a painter, autodidact by early choice. To earn my living I work as calligrapher, and set-designer for feature films. I was born in Rome. A good amount of talent in the arts was passed on to me by my family. Baroque art runs in my veins, but during my childhood we traveled the world, thus I developed an affinity to different ancient civilizations, the decorative taste of the Middle-East and to Middle-European Expressionism. I studied communications design in Augsburg, Germany. Now I live in Berlin with my family. Susanna Cardelli mail-adress: [email protected]
